How they approach the work
Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.
- Collective Advocacy Modelmethodology: collective_healthcare_advocacyBy uniting member hospitals to identify priorities, analyze shared data, and advocate jointly, we achieve greater policy influence at regional, state, and federal levels than individual institutions could alone, because collective action amplifies credibility and political leverage.
